Quick quiz: what’s the one country that has more sexual hangups than the United States? Japan! Correct!

Yes, finally fulfilling the dreams of jillions of otakus nation(world?)wide, Sega Toys has invented a robot girlfriend called EMA: Eternal Maiden Actualization. You can’t make this shit up, people.

A Japanese firm has produced a 15-inch tall robotic girlfriend that kisses on command, to go on sale in September for around $175, with a target market of lonely adult men.

Using her infrared sensors and battery power, the diminutive damsel named “EMA” puckers up for nearby human heads, entering what designers call its “love mode.”
